The highlight of yesterday's road trip was awaiting us as we turned off the highway and headed back in to the ranch. There to greet us was
Big O. He was the first bull I met when I moved here, and I'm always delighted to see him. Some might think,
you seen one bull, you seen 'em all. Not so with this guy. His name is a Spanish word that begins with O, but I can never remember what it is, so I just call him Big O.
Uh-O. Here it comes.
I am really starting to get a complex about this,
and this...
and this...
and this...
and this...
and this...
But I digress. Despite the rude behavior, Big O is a fine speciman of a bull.
He has been the big bull on this campus for a long time, and his offspring are equally distinguished.
Let's just say the acorn doesn't fall far from the tree and leave it at that.
That is just too funny :P
ReplyDeleteI love Big O!!! And I wouldn't take the whole tongue-thing personally. I think that must mean something different in the animal world...something like, Mmmm...I bet you taste gooood....but, well, I guess that's not better, is it. That just makes it sound like they all want to gobble you up. Awesome pics!
ReplyDeleteerrr maybe their version of "hang loose"? I dunno you definitely seem to capture more animal tongues pics than anyone else....they MUST be telling you something! :)
ReplyDeleteOMG, what magnificent horns! I'll bet the bull that lives down the road from me would be so jealous if he could see this. Does Mr. Big O ever try to block your way as you drive through? Notice i call him Mr. out of respect - such an impressive fellow!
ReplyDeleteThat's on nice looking bull. What a set of horns.
ReplyDeleteO is probably for "Oso"...that means....BEAR! He looks as big as a bear!
ReplyDeleteAwesome tour of your welcoming committee. Wish I was there.
ReplyDeleteBig O is a gorgeous fellow, no wonder he gets the ladies.
ReplyDeleteVery handsome fellow - and you do have something that seems to bring out the tongues in all your animals.
ReplyDeleteAre you that tasty looking?
Dan
He's a beauty.
ReplyDeleteYea, there must be something about you that causes the animals to stick out their tongues at you. Maybe it's because your hair smells good and they want a taste?
It almost looks like Big O is flirting with you. First it's the eyes, then the tongue. Girl...look out...I think that bull is sweet on you.
ReplyDeleteOmg...this is great.
ReplyDeleteI do believe they are just letting you know how much they LOVE YOU in tongue language :D
ReplyDeleteBig O is absolutely stunning. Wow.
ReplyDeleteI am a big fan of your blog, despite being young, and i was wondering what type of camera you use. I envy the fact that you can make a cow licking its nose look so good. Anyway, keep up the good work!!
ReplyDeleteAlexa, I use a Nikon D80. Cows really seem to like it.
ReplyDeletewow..he is VERY impressive..I'd be sure to stay outta his way...
ReplyDeleteLOVe the tongue thing...hehehe..too funny :)
sandy
Hey Lisa....maybe we should all send pictures of ourselves giving "the tongue" :)
ReplyDeleteHilarious how you have captured so many of those tongues. Those are some huge cattle. Wow!
ReplyDeleteIf all of those animals didn't look so happy in their mug shots, I would think that they were giving you the human equivalent of "the bird!" LOL!!!
